they will not be able to break the encryption (or the smartcards). They
also took our mobile phones, but even if they were to break into them,
no login data or anything else affecting our infrastructure or
communications is stored on those phones.

documents related to our Riseup bank account starting from January 2018.
They also went and got those from our bank, the GLS Gemeinschaftsbank.
However, we have to keep records and receipts of all expenditures for
tax reasons. These documents were “safely” kept in a secure fire-proof safe.

members.

Witnesses? Seriously, witnesses? Seems a bit extreme for "witnesses".
